2018 is coming to an end and we can proudly look back on an amazing year of golf. We got a lot of new enthusiastic members and experienced a lot of fun events, from internal tournaments and training sessions at the @rijkvanmargraten to some other activities ranging from going go-karting and enjoying some glühwein at the Christmas Market.

We want to thank everybody for this amazing year. In specific we want to thank @rijkvanmargraten for having us and @um.sports and @sportscouncilmusst for providing us with everything we need to get where we are now.

Finally, we want to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

On the 6th of July, we had our annual general member assembly, where the 2017/2018 Board presented us with a full overview over the 2018/2019 season and a new Board was assigned.

To start off, we want to thank the 2017/2018 Board for all the hard work they have put into the SGV Maastricht over the past year. We have seen a significant increase in new members and group activities in comparison to the previous year and hope to continue on this path in the 2018/2019 season. Our 2017/2018 Board consisted of President Wouter Robaeys, Secretary Saskia Marks, and Treasurer Stijn van Pinxteren. A big thank you to them on behalf of the whole SGV Maastricht.

For the upcoming season 2018/2019 a new board was voted unanimously by all legally present members, consisting of President Saskia Marks, Vice-President/Treasurer Joost Boren, and Secretary/PR Roderick Resing.

We are very motivated to run the SGV Maastricht for the upcoming season and are looking forward to seeing you back on the course after the summer break.

Fri, 03 Aug 2018 15:32:30 +0000http://www.sgvmaastricht.nl/?p=1461Last Saturday we had the pleasure of hosting the Maastrichtse ANWB Open at the beautiful Golfbaan Het Rijk van Margraten. Many thanks to ANWB Golf, Nassau Golf and Black Tie Services for their sponsoring! An equally big thank you to all participants who made this sunny day even more radiant!

We just finished the beginning of the academic year 2017-2018. Since many things has happened the past few months we will give you an overview of the current situation. We started this year at the Inkom and the try-5. This was in collaboration with UM Sports and MUSST. This was a success. Furthermore, we had our introduction drinks, our first golf classes, and even the first competition of 2017-2018. It was great! There is a lot of enthusiasm, new ideas, and a bigger board! The board comprehends of 3 members: Wouter Robaeys as president, Stijn van Pinxteren as treasurer, and Saskia Marks started in September as secretary. We will keep you informed through our Facebook page and this website this year. The most important thing to know is that we are training now on Tuesdays at 7 pm (of course still at Het Rijk van Margraten).

The price for participation is the usual Weekend Greenfee as subsidised by the SGV (44,50€) plus an additional 27,50 € for provisions (food&drinks).
The complete price is thus a mere 66,00€ for an entire golfday including the green fee, drinks as well as meals and a lot of joy!

At last, we are excited to see our members and express a warm welcome to our new members that we look forward to greet.
Please feel free to contact secretaris@sgvmaastricht.nl for questions or other inquiries.

The golf-course Het Rijk van Margraten and the Studenten Golf Vereniging Maastricht started to cooperate!

SGV Maastricht and Het Rijk van Margraten sealed a deal for a long term partnership on Wednesday, February 19. This equips the SGV Maastricht with a professional and multifunctional place perfect for the organisation of golf-lessons and tournaments.

Sweet deals were arranged for SGV Maastricht Members for lessons at Golfschool Het Rijk as well as for attractive greenfee-prices on the 18 holes PAR-72 golf course and the 9 holes Pitch&Putt course.

Golf is the ideal networkingtool in order to take the first steps towards an internship, post-study vacancy or job.
It is the ideal springboard for an ambitious career.

Students are more than welcome at Het Rijk van Margraten to learn golf and to come play!

Last Saturday September 24, the fourth edition of the Golf Classic took place. This year named ‘La Dolce Vespa Golf Classic 2011’. The photo’s are online now!

Advanced as well as inexperienced golfers were able to participate by subscribing to the 18-holes Championship Tournament or to a 3-hour golf clinic. The event took place on the MIG course, also the home course of SGV Maastricht. Participants showed up in ‘classic’ golf outfits to adapt to the theme of the day and were welcomed with coffee, tea and cake after which the first flights started. Around noon also the clinic under the guidance of a golf professional started. Each participant received a lunch bag to consume during their play. The entire afternoon participants not only from Maastricht, but also from Eindhoven, Rotterdam and Amsterdam played an extensive round of golf. After the first flight arrived at the clubhouse again, people enjoyed the glowing after summer sun with drinks on the terrace. A chef prepared a delicious barbecue and dessert buffet for the participants, after which the winners were announced and prizes were handed over to them. Prizes were made available by our sponsors: Bang & Olufsen, Suitable en Scapa. The grand prize, a Vespa picknick arrangement, was sponsored by our main sponsor ‘La Dolce Vespa’ and was won by Edward Snijders from Amsterdam. On behalf of the Golf Classic Organization we thank all participants, sponsors and the MIG for making this incredible day possible! See you at the next Classic!
